(sound heavenly though) You need a dr's note if you're calling in sick for 2 consecutive days or more, and a certificate may be requested if you take 2 sick days within an 8 week cycle....
Here they are very stingy on time off. I'm probaby facng disciplinary action upon my return for time taken off this week... but I couldn't care less at this point 
Ps would have preferred a middlefinger smiley there  |
When I say 'personal time' I mean as part of vacation time/annual leave, in the sense of appointments coming out of it, etc. If you have an appointment during work hours, does it come out of your vacation/annual leave? You don't have 'Extended Sick Leave?' Yikes!! This is what people here use for surgeries, for example. I've been working at this place for 4 years and haven't used any ESL, so I now have about 4 weeks accumulated. I may actually need a cervical spine surgery soon, and that's what I would take it out of (though I think they take your vacation hours first, not sure). What do you do if you have a surgery or long illness??
